We are aware that a number of students have recently lost their BRP cards/had the BRP cards stolen because they carried the BRP card in their wallets. We would encourage all students to be careful with their BRP card and not carry this around on a regular basis whilst in the UK. You should only need to carry your BRP card with you when travelling outside of the UK.

If you believe you have lost your BRP card, please refer to the information on our Lost passport/ BRP websiteLink opens in a new window for guidance on what steps to take next.

Please refer to our website for information about how academic extensionLink opens in a new window / course changeLink opens in a new window affects you, whether you need to apply for a Student visa, and whether you are eligible to do so from inside the UK.

If you need to extend your visa you will need to request a new CAS from our CAS request pages.Link opens in a new window

As you are a continuing student and hold a valid Student visa, your question is essentially about the possibility of 'change of study location'.

You will first need to check with your academic department. If they agree, you may be able to study remotely for part of Term 1 or the whole of Term 1, but your academic department will need to authorise this and they will need to keep a record and adjust your attendance monitoring plan accordingly.
